Tuna Stuffed Avocados Easy Low-Carb And Healthy
This tuna stuffed avocado recipe seems to tick a lot of dietary boxes – it’s low-carb, keto, Whole30, paleo, gluten-free and dairy-free. It’s a high-protein (23g of protein per serving) and high-fat recipe (of the healthy variety) that will keep you quite full. This means you’ll be less likely to grab carby, sugary and unhealthy meal options.
INGREDIENTS
US Customary - Metric
- 4 avocados
- 2 5 ounce cans tuna (I prefer albacore tuna)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 stalk of celery, diced
- 2 tbsp red onion, diced
- 1-2 tbsp chopped parsley, chives and/or other herbs
- 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- salt and pepper, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Add the tuna, mayonnaise, diced celery, diced red onion, herbs, Dijon mustard, salt and pepper to a mixing bowl. Stir together until well combined.
- Slice the avocados in half and remove the seed. Dollop a few spoonfuls of tuna salad onto each avocado half.
LISA'S TIPS
- You can definitely meal prep the tuna salad (will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge) and just slice the avocados daily as needed for lunch.
- If serving these for a crowd, squirt fresh lemon juice on the avocado halves and rub it in. This will help to prevent discoloration and browning of the avocado.
